Best to switch to Firefox anyways, or even better privacy enhanced LibreWolf

This project is a custom and independent version of Firefox, with the primary goals of privacy, security and user freedom. LibreWolf is designed to increase protection against tracking and fingerprinting techniques, while also including a few security improvements. This is achieved through our privacy and security oriented settings and patches. LibreWolf also aims to remove all the telemetry, data collection and annoyances, as well as disabling anti-freedom features like DRM.

We've just been told yesterday that to reduce our attack surface, only Edge will be allowed on our workstations. Reasoning is that it's difficult to make sure everyone is properly updates their browser, and since Edge is handled by windows updates, it's easier to monitor proper updates.

While I understand that reasoning, the tradeoff between pretty small risk reduction associated with unlikely attack surface from different browsers, and the massive drop in employee satisfaction, is simply not worth it.

I wonder how many still won't switch.

Okay. I have purged Google chrome from my devices long ago.

I already know that nobody will mention Vivaldi, or if they do, they will be drowned out by a chorus of voices shouting "Firefox", but if you like the chromium ecosystem or just don't like waiting for web pages to function, it's a great alternative.
